Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThis was Cynthia Lynn's final appearance, after 22 episodes, as Col. Klink's (Werner Klemperer) secretary 'Helga'. However, she would make two more appearances in the show's latter seasons as uncredited characters. Sigrid Valdis, as 'Hilda', would take over the secretarial role from season two onwards.
- GoofsThis is the first time the viewer learns of Kinchloe's first name. As he reads his letter from the draft board, the salutation (as read by Kinchloe) is "Dear James Kinchloe..." In subsequent episodes his name is mentioned as "Ivan Kinchloe". Although this discrepancy exists, it does not necessarily mean it is wrong, as many people often times like to be addressed by their middle name, and it is possible that between his first & middle names, one might be 'James' and the other 'Ivan'.
Featured review
Women are like war.....
In this final episode of season one, we get Carter getting a 'Dear John' letter from home when his sweet-heart Mary Jane is now seeing someone else in her hometown. Now Carter ask permission from Hogan to escape to go back to the States and be with Mary Jane.
At first Hogan resists Carters request and even goes as far to get others, including Schultz, to talk with Carter and try to get him to change his mind. It will not be until Hogan gets some micro-film with some false information contained about a bombing raid. What the Allies want is for the Germans to recover the film from one of the prisoners and think that this is true information. Now Hogan is asking for volunteers to escape and then be recaptured with the film on them.
Since no one wants to volunteer, Carter will do the duty. But on his escape trip he meet a young waitress that just may solve the problem that Hogan was unable to solve.
It was nice to see Larry Hovis getting the lead in this show that was well done by the entire cast. Nothing was really remarkable in this production but it still provided an enjoyable watching experience. As we end season one, expectations are high for the next season to beginning. And thanks to the magic of reruns, we only have tomorrow to wait.
